Esfandiari Doubles Through Driscoll

Jonathan Driscoll raised to 32,000 from the button and Antonio Esfandiari called from the big blind. The flop came {10-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} and the fireworks began. Esfandiari checked, Driscoll bet 32,000, Esfandiari raised to 86,000, and Driscoll then re-raised to 140,000. Not to be outdone, Esfandiari put in yet enother raise to 215,000 total. Driscoll opted to simply call and the {a-Clubs} fell on the turn. Esfandiari only had a little over 200,000 left in his stack and checked the action to Driscoll who put out two green chips equaling 50,000. Esfandiari then pushed in a raise to 150,000 and Driscoll immediately said he was all in.

Esfandiari snap-called and Driscoll cried "You better not have a better kicker" and groaned in agony when Esfandiari showed his {k-Clubs} {10-Hearts} . Driscoll flipped over his {10-Clubs} {7-Clubs} and the entire table waited to see what the river would bring. The {k-Hearts} came giving Esfandiari a full house and the double up.
